What we need, mostly is to assert ourselves as belonging in the EU: #EuBelong , #WeAreEU; rather than the transactional/economic mindset that lost us the referendum in 2016. Because, if it’s all conditional on how much we get out in £bn, then whenever the economy struggles in the U.K.. 1/
Thousands of Hungarians are out & on the streets protesting against Viktor Orban's pro-Putin regime.
This is how you fight back against authoritarianism. To all those out protesting, we have your back.

Europa beschimpfen & bedrohen, aber gleichzeitig Geschäfte machen wollen, so ganz klar im Kopf ist man in den USA nimmer! #weareeurope #weareEU orf.at/stories/3420...
you look at his posts from that viewpoint, they make sense. But also, FWIW, this is the core position of @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social too. EU membership shouldn't be transactional, but cultural: #WeAreEU and #EUbelong.
(its, possessive pronoun). But yes. This is why if ever we #RejoinEU, we need to see ourselves as Europeans first and foremost: #WeAreEU and #euBelong rather than from a transactional viewpoint.
Wikipedia affirms the UK is part of Europe. So does Google. #WeAreEU , #euBelong, #RejoinEU ( @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social ).
.. then the UK is still subordinate to it. There are no meaningful, nor beneficial ways to diverge, as the failed Tory attempts to scrap EU-derived laws between 2020-2024 proved. Thus #WeAreEU (though not yet members) has to be central to the #RejoinEU strategy ( @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social ).
Brexit could never have worked, because after 45 years of being in the EEC/EU, #WeAreEU. Because we're so interconnected with the rest of Europe now (and it with us), we actually lost sovereignty by leaving, because we lost our voice, but not many obligations. #RejoinEU.
Today 🇸🇰 Slovak ambassadors to the #EU🇪🇺 greeted the @slovakiaineu.bsky.social staff & welcomed the newcomers👋
🆕 diplomatic season will be full of challenges accross all the areas - close #cooperation & #coordination will be key in overcoming them.

Two things (1) You're still helping Reform Ltd by 100% failing to add the "Ltd" (2) You're still following the technocratic arguments as though we're weighing up the perks of a gym membership we might quit if the deal changes. It can't beat a Sovereignty argument. We should say: #WeAreEU & #EuBelong
Because that's the same technocratic argument that lost in 2016 & as proof, the pro-EU share remains at 52% with 19% more receptive to Leave 2.0 lies. We need a #EuBelong and #WeAreEu argument that reaches people's hearts.
Yet the number of Remainers doesn't seem to shift up. It's still sitting at 52% with 19% susceptible to Leave 2.0 lies. Perhaps this is because pro-EUers are still banging on with the same technocratic arguments that lost us the Ref in 2016 instead of a #EuBelong or #WeAreEu sense of identity.

Stavo giusto pensando di comprarmi una bandiera UE e di appenderla al balcone. E ora trovo questa proposta...

#WakeupEU
Full house for an exchange on the urgent need to #DefendDemocracy in an era of sharp power.
Investing in democratic #resilience against hybrid warfare should be considered part of a country's 2% GDP #defence spending, if not deserve its own 2%.
